Spellcaster University News

Hello everyone,

Just a quick note to let you know that we’re part of a bundle with the newly released Wizdom Academy, now in Early Access! So if you're in the mood for twice the magical school goodness, this bundle is worth every gold coin!

Hello, headmasters and headmistresses of magic schools! :cutedragon:

It’s been a long time! Sorry for the long silence. Here’s a small balance and bug-fix update (see the non-exhaustive list at the bottom of this post). This is also a technical update, paving the way for a major expansion coming later this year. This expansion will allow us to deliver the final, definitive version of Spellcaster University.

This game has been a labor of love for us, but the time has come to move on to new video game projects. This expansion will let us wrap up the adventure properly.

A quick word as well for those who interacted with us throughout development: for the past two years, we’ve been very quiet. Various family reasons (and perhaps, paradoxically, a need to take a breather after the incredible reception Spellcaster University received—thank you again!) led us to gradually step back from communication, though not from development, which continued at a slower pace.

For a long time, we hesitated to create an expansion for Spellcaster University. We had plenty of ideas but feared overloading an already rich game. However, as time passed, we refined our vision and arrived at something we truly like. I’ll be sharing some visuals of what’s coming “soon.”

Balance:

• The chance to gain the Heroic trait from the Heroic Statue increases from 3% to 4%.
  
• Increases the efficiency of the Future Heating Boxes by 25%.
  
• Increases the effects (both positive and negative) of the Tentacle artifact by 20%.
  
• Doubles the effect of the Old-fashioned trait.
  
• Doubles the effect of the Ugly trait.
  
• Doubles the effect of the Aggressive trait.
  
• Doubles the effect of the Unshakable trait.
  
• Doubles the effect of the Resilient trait (outside of dungeons).
  
• Doubles the effect of the Brave trait (outside of dungeons).
  
• Increases the effect of the Green Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
  
• Increases the effect of the Blue Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
  
• Increases the effect of the Black Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
  
• Increases the effect of the Purple Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
  
• Increases the effect of the White Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
  
• Increases the effect of the Turquoise Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
  
• The Bloody Curse now accelerates reputation loss by 20% instead of 10%.
  

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug that caused excessive CPU usage when displaying the in-game date.
  
• The student information panel no longer briefly appears with incorrect stats before updating on the first frame.
  
• In all languages (except French), fixed a missing space in the graduation ceremony text.
  
• Reduced the risk of students getting stuck on certain maps (especially in the mountain and volcano).
  
• General optimization by disabling unnecessary background debugging tools.

It has now been roughly 1 year and 9 months since we came out of early access, and about 3 and a half years since Spellcaster University existed with its first appearance on Steam. That's... a long time. So, it's time for us to move on. We'll be announcing good news about the future of Spellcaster University soon, which we hope you'll enjoy. We'll tell you more soon!
